Once Upon a Time in Mexico Reviews
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
A movie with that many freaks and creeps should be a lot more exciting than this one actually is.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Whenever Rodriguez is in a Fairbanks mood, Mexico delivers.
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
A mess of a movie that nevertheless entertains because each individual piece stands high enough on its own merits that it's not necessary to look hard at the nonsensical linking material.
Orlando Sentinel
Roger Moore
A winking exercise in actors acting cool and the amoral joys of trigger- happiness.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
I understood the general outlines of the story, I liked the bold strokes he uses to create the characters, and I was amused by the camera work, which includes a lot of shots that are about themselves.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Hartlaub
Despite the movie's dark humor, violence and the occasional nonvoluntary facial surgery that will drive away the queasy, Once Upon a Time in Mexico is the most crowd-pleasing film in the series.
New York Post
Megan Lehmann
A heady mix of Tarantino-esque pulp.
Denver Post
Michael Booth
Shamelessly violent and shallow.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
In fact, his main character the Mariachi disappears for long stretches of the film's brisk 97-minutes, the director instead choosing to shift much of the attention on Depp's beguilingly double-dealing CIA agent.
Slant Magazine
Jeremiah Kipp
As an iconic image, [Depp] captures the feeling of Rodriguez's movie: blinded and shooting randomly in all directions.
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
Like an R-rated, violent Roadrunner cartoon.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
... this proves as the opposite of Cabin Fever, you can spill a lot of blood in a gratuitous, but very entertaining way.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
Make no mistake, this movie is a mess. But, wow, what a mess!
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Depp, a mere two months after his scene-stealing turn in Pirates of the Caribbean, once again is the best thing about a very silly movie.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
A whiz-bang kick in the pants.
Newark Star-Ledger
Bob Campbell
Rodriguez's movie aspires to trashy grandeur, and achieves it.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
Paying homage to Sergio Leone, Mexico aims too high and, in the process, becomes more like every generic, overplotted drug-cartel- and-revenge flick out there.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Steve Murray
A lusty, zesty goof.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
Dazzling visuals, ambitious stunts and enough raw action to please the most demanding fans.
